QlikView's disruptive technology makes it a key player and leader in the industry; with its flexibility and powerful analytics environment, building QlikView apps can be mastered by both, business users as well as developers.\nThis book will help you learn QlikView Development from a basic to a practitioner level using a step-by-step approach in a practical environment, and apply proven best practices on each topic.\nThroughout the book, we will build a QlikView app based on real data about Airline Operations that will help \"HighCloud Airlines\" make informed business decisions and analysis-guided strategies. HighCloud Airlines executives are evaluating if entering the US market is a good strategy and, if so, which line of business should they focus their investments on; they need QlikView to make the best decision.\nThe application will be evolving chapter by chapter, along with your skills, going from a simple proof of concept to creating a Data Model, adding a custom style, building a Dashboard and handling and manipulating the source data via script. We will meet the \"HighCloud Airlines\" requirement by using many different data visualization objects and time-saving techniques.\nThe whole application uses real data taken from the Bureau of Transportations statistics of the US and encompasses the operations of Airlines both domestic and international. With three years worth of data, you will help HighCloud Airlines discover where people travel the most, which are the Carriers with the most market share, what is the average load factor per airline, which aircraft is the most used to perform flights, which are the busiest airports, and a whole universe of new insights.\u003ch4\u003eWhat you will learn\u003c/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLearn the techniques and best practices to transform data in QlikView via script\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eLoading data from disparate sources to build an associative Data Model\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBuilding robust data models and overcoming common modeling challenges\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigning data visualization objects to present performance measures with charts and tables\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eLearn to use dimensions and expressions in QlikView objects\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eUtilise QlikView s built-in aggregation functions to achieve complex calculations\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCreating Point In Time reporting and achieving complex calculations using Set Analysis\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCreating a consistent and interactive user interface\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eEnsuring your QlikView applications and data are protected\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructing a data architecture that supports scalable QlikView deployments\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eLearn time-saving techniques for making your QlikView development more efficient\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWho this book is for\u003c/h4\u003eIf you are a developer who is looking to learn a fast and easy way to learn to develop your business intelligence apps with QlikView, then this book is for you.
